The study aims to strengthen the evidence base on child labour and the labour conditions of migrant workers in Thailand’s shrimp and other seafood supply chains, with a particular focus on communities engaged in these industries. Its objective is to provide practical, empirically grounded policy recommendations that can be discussed with different stakeholders and
considered by both national and provincial governments and industry.
The study draws on a combination of existing evidence and data from the ILO’s work in Thailand and supplementary qualitative information generated through focus group discussions, key informant interviews, and
consultations with stakeholders.
